Mud and Nascar

So I'm unloading some boxes at a friend's house out in the back shed Saturday after our run. I hop back into my truck and all four of my tires yell at me in unison, "Hey you big dummy, we're stuck!!" Needless to say I spent the next five hours trying to get unstuck in the mud. Well, finally at 9pm, I was cold, wet, and covered with mud, only not the kind you pay lots of money for at a spa. After falling through my ceiling, breaking my fireplace glass inserts, and getting stuck in the mud, you could say that last week was not the best of weeks!!
I said that this week was going to be better than last week and guess what I got in the mail on Monday? An official letter from Coca-Cola stating that I had won a contest giving me two tickets to the Bristol NASCAR race on March 25! Needless to say my wife the big NASCAR fan that she is, WAS STOKED!!!! So don't expect me to run on Saturday the 24th as we will be on our way to the race.

Is it just me? It seems that during the last two weeks, I am eating three times more than I used to. After every training session, I come back with a ravaging appetite and want to eat everything in site!!! I can't seem to lose any weight because I'm taking in more calories than I'm burning. I'm waiting for the Super Foods book to help me out.
